    Congratulations?

    Remember: scars are tattoos with better stories. (I saw that on a t-shirt)

    We should start a "Show us your biking scars" thread. Bike-related surgery scars would count.

    You go first

    Well - 8 stitches later - came home - and went right back into battle - took the bike out for a test run with her new Continental Gatorskins... WOW!!! What a difference - I went from 700x35 to 700x25 - I think I'm going to like these

    Yikes. I know lots of you on the forum love using clipless, and they seem like they'd be pretty necessary for racing or competing, but....every day that goes by on this forum, I get more and more glad that I use PowerGrip straps instead of clipless! I can always count on my foot coming out when I turn my ankle and withdraw it. For myself, I can't imagine using clipless in high traffic with frequent unexpected stop & start situations.
    Very sorry to hear about your gash! Hope you heal soon. And I hope you don't fall anymore!

    Yeah - you and me both CyclChyk!!

    The bike is fine - it suffered more damage from the wash I gave it over the week-end than this!!
